Orana School Rudolf Steiner Education

Sydney Private Schools introduces Orana School Rudolf Steiner Education in Weston, for all your education and learning needs.

In the Kindergarten, education is centred upon meeting the needs of the child�s developing will. A caring environment which abounds with many possibilities for sensory and will activities is provided for children at this level. A feature of Primary education in Steiner schools such as Orana is that the class teacher moves with the children from Class 1 to 7 and therefore has an in depth understanding of the class as individuals and as a group. Clay modelling Class teachers engage classes in movement, speech, drawing, painting, modelling, story-telling, writing and singing as well as lesson content, in order to cultivate the feeling life of the child. It is recognised that during the Primary phase there is a burgeoning imaginative thinking ability which flourishes and is exercised in an environment filled with creative endeavour. It is a discipline in a Steiner School to meet the child's developmental phases with appropriate tasks and content. The educational intention is to foster an active, articulate and rounded thinking capacity. Students participate in a full range of subjects including humanities, languages, arts, mathematics, sciences, technical studies, life skills and sports. Within each subject the student is meeting a different discipline: thinking is being exercised in diverse ways. In addition, Orana offers a range of electives to Year 9 and 10 students to allow individuals scope to explore new areas and emerging interests. The school has significant facilities in art, music, drama, woodwork, science and photography.
